If that previous poster is correct, noted TSW member and Alabama aficionado Sky Diver will be singing:

🎶 Thank you for all the joy and pain...🎵

Nice memory - my mind went straight to the Bama-lover but I spaced on the name.

I would love to know what happened with him.  To me, he's part of the best throw of Josh's career and had a hot second half of the season.  I never understood why he didn't earn more playing time and was relegated to the bench or practice squad.  With the losses of Sanders, and potentially Beasley/McKenzie, I'd love to bring him back

I hope you are trolling with the best throw of his career.  I can specifically think of 3 from the KC playoff game that were more clutch

I remember the play where JA17 threw a beautiful 60 yard pass to Foster ....... It bounced off the back of his head.

Oh the memories of Robert Foster star shine in Buffalo.

He had an attitude issue.  LeSean McCoy was his mentor on team and took him under his wing after he was benched saying he could not expect to be given anything. His attitude changed in practices and he got snaps in games and for half a year he was decent.  LeSean McCoy was released and his attitude returned.  61% catch rate first year including first part of year and was terrible second year before he was let go.

Nope. That throw in the Jags game was absolutely insane. He somehow threw a laser while being crushed by two guys and hit Foster in stride, where only he could get it.  
 

I challenge you to show me a better overall pass.

First I’ve heard that.  Makes sense.  McD wouldn’t put up with that

Clutch vs physically best are different 

 

I absolutely agree that with the pocket collapsing, and Josh getting buried... The way the ball came out of his hand with velocity and accuracy was one of the best throws I've ever seen 

 

It was a meaningless game so the throw didn't mean much.. but in terms of the difficulty it was asinine (and I mean stupid in the best way )

Josh has a TON of highlights, but that play where he got crushed by two guys and still got the ball out on target was quintessential gritty Josh. I don’t know how to “rank” them, but THAT has to be on the list.

A lot of negative reaction to this. It’s a fair question. He seemed like a diamond in the rough for a minute. 
 

He’s a league minimum guy at this point. It doesn’t hurt to bring him into camp. I think he can play ST as well.

I was a big Bob Foster fan during his Bills tenure, too.  His immediate drop-off was a head scratcher.

I seem to recall that it was his attitude.

Not so much a memory, as it's burned into my brain his 'banging the drum' for Foster as 'All World MVP / NFL HoF'.

Isn’t Kamil Loud available? Or Kwame Cavil?
